| cerealkiller | posted 6-Jan-2009 6:24pm Yes, hate when that happens. At least vehicles have hydraulic jacks nowadays and not the bumper jacks like back in the 60's. Those were scary. |
| LJD | posted 6-Jan-2009 6:32pm No. I'd die out in no where, if I had a flat. It's a good thing to know. I've watched it done before. I need a man around for those kinds of things. |
| Cain | posted 6-Jan-2009 7:35pm I think I probaly could, but I've never had to so far. How hard can it be? |
| Galomorro | posted 6-Jan-2009 8:46pm I don't drive but I can make my own yogurt. |
| Enheduanna | posted 6-Jan-2009 9:34pm No, but I can pay someone who can. |
| jettles | posted 7-Jan-2009 5:20am yes, of course |
| bill | posted 7-Jan-2009 5:21am Yes, I did this once with a Dodge Colt. The tire blew out or something. Though, I think I was with my dad. Still, he's not that handy, so I think I should get most of the credit. |
| Matty | posted 7-Jan-2009 8:25am What's so hard about changing a tire? |
| judgescratch | posted 7-Jan-2009 9:11am "No" |
| Joanne | posted 8-Jan-2009 1:46am I can facilitate the tire change. I have great legs, big bewbs, and a winning smile. |
| icurok | posted 8-Jan-2009 12:27pm Yes.
I can (and have) changed a flat "tyre". |
| cloudhugger | posted 12-Jan-2009 10:43am I've done it, and I won't do it anymore. Crap. That's what comes to mind when I think about having to do it. I call an aouto club. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to Matty) posted 12-Jan-2009 10:45am It's just like installing a towel rack, but outside. |

| LJD | (reply to JessicaWoman99) posted 18-Jan-2009 7:15pm When my husband was gone recently on a hunting trip, for three weeks. I was alone, except for 4 nights when the grandchildren stayed with me. I was terrified. I locked the house, windows, set up traps, brought in several bottles of water into my room, locked it, set a chair against the door. I could never be alone. I need a man around. Even though my husband and I don't share the same room, I KNOW he's in the house. When he came back, he laughed at all the obstacles I set up.. I think they need to have classes for women that don't know how to change a tire, we're not always going to have a man around to rescue us... |

It really scares me not having a man around to help me and i do have a friend he worked on my hot water heater for me and we went to see my roommate she is in jail for a DUI and assault on a police officer and she is expected to go to Rehabilitation for alcohol abuse 21 days in rehab plus she might get 90 days in jail It is so wonderful to have Mike around to help me |
| LJD | (reply to JessicaWoman99) posted 18-Jan-2009 7:45pm I hope your friend is rehabilitated. It's worrisome to be hooked on drugs/alcohol, damaging to the person, and those around him/her. Pray for your friend's recovery. I imagine the 90 days in jail is for the assault on an officer? I don't know the laws on this violation. Our officers hopefully wear protective vests. |

| LJD | (reply to JessicaWoman99) posted 18-Jan-2009 8:10pm I believe people should learn their vulnerabilities to alcohol. I drink socially, once or twice a year. My husband is a former alcoholic, it runs in my husband's family. His father, his grandfather were alcoholics, had blood sugar problems. My two sons, have had a propensity towards alcohol, blood sugar problems. My sons have kept it under control, but have fallen off a couple times, but has never interfered with work. They know there is an alcohol problem that runs in their dad's side. They watch themselves...they're sober.
It was hell the first 5 years of our marriage because of alcohol. In 1965 he quit because of a DUI. He had three of them. I had to wrap my four little children (two babies) every morning in our station wagon, to take him to work, because he had no license. This went on for a year, when finally, he asked a coworker if he'd pick him up. The coworker said yes. I wanted to kiss that man for doing it. I personally believe the reason some people have a problem dealing with alcohol is because of the grains. When my sons were little, I was told my sons were allergic to grains by an allergy doctor. They told me to not feed my sons any flour off the grocery shelves. I had to go to a health food store. I did as the doctor said, but my husband said the boys were too young to go through the regimen, he demanded I stop. I absolutely believe this is one of the reasons my son has the allergy to alcohol. I suggest you tell your friend to look up the book "Eat Right for (4) Your Type", by Dr. Peter D'Adamo, with Catherine Whitney, and eat foods that is good for her. Of course, it is not a panacea for everything, but it is a start. Watch the emotions that trigger the drink. |

Of course, it is not a panacea for > everything, but it is a start. Watch the emotions that trigger the > drink. On my moms side i remember my Uncle Junior he drank heavily before he died and passed away my mom she was telling me all about my Uncle on her side of the family and how he drank so many beers a day and my sister my younger sibling 43 years old she got married and divorced 4 times in just 1 or 2 years all because the men she married they all spent their time down at the local bar not helping to pay the bills or do anything but drink and get drunk while my sister she stayed home trying to pay the bills on her own while her husband wasted away and lost his job at a computer place and same with her other husbands they just spent all their time, down at the local bar drinking away and taking no responsibility with the kids and paying the bills at home. My sister divorced him and she wanted custody of her 2 children and he fought back with a Lawyer something my sister she could not afford an Attorney and her husband he was a car salesman and made good money where he could afford a Lawyer. Well my sister she did get custody of Danielle but not the boy Christapher? My sister she wanted both her children and she ends up with only one, Yes i am an Aunt Jessica I do remember the times my mom she would drink at the bar and cheat on my dad picking up strange men at the bar and i was hurt deeply seeing all this take place at the bar , and i myself got drunk so many times as a teenager and just growing up drinking whiskey and and Jack Daniels and Southern Comfort and talk about passing out i did? There were those times i drove my car all drunk from drinking and who knows how i got home. After 53 years here i am still having a drink and getting myself drunk and yes i do need lots of help Jean.

| LJD | (reply to JessicaWoman99) posted 19-Jan-2009 12:07am Half the battle of beating alcohol poisoning is recognizing you have a problem. You're aware. Alcohol is a killer. Alcoholism is hereditary. I wish you the best in conquering the alcohol demon.
I never understood an alcohol problem until I met my husband. I was never around alcohol with the family, or friends. I've read that all alcoholics have blood sugar problems. Alcohol is sugar based. Get help Jessica. Check the site below, of an analogy of what sugar does to the body. http://www.naturalnews.com/002038.html |
